Abstract

Forensic Pathology was recognized as a subspecialty by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada (Royal College, formerly RCPSC) in 2003. In 2008, following a series of recommendations made by a government inquiry into systemic failures in the provision of pediatric forensic pathology service in Ontario, there was impetus for the Royal College's Forensic Pathology Specialty Committee to develop standards of training, assess proposed residency programs, and establish a certification mechanism for pathologists practicing forensic pathology in Canada.
